I very much like your postage stamp images Andy. I was a collector all through my school days. My grandparents came from farming villages in the hills above the Bay of Naples. On Sundays after dinner, my grandfather frequently played Caruso records and sipped wine. More often than not, an especially moving aria would bring tears to the old man's eyes. As a child, I didn't understand or like the music. I've grown to love opera as much as my grandfather did I think. Thank you for stirring my memories of this Paisano and the miniature engravings that so many take for granted. voted, favorite
